Acknowledgement of Country

I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which I live and work, the Wurundjeri and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters and community. I pay my respects to Elders past and present, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. I acknowledge that this land always was, and always will be, Aboriginal land.

Acknowledgement of Lived Experience

This work recognises the importance of lived experience in the mental health sector. Lived experience of mental health challenges and recovery plays a vital role in informing and strengthening mental health education, and contributes to more compassionate, inclusive, and effective responses to mental health.

Mental health first aid education is informed by evidence, research, and the contributions of people with lived experience, while course delivery follows the MHFA curriculum and educational framework.
